Arena Cutoffs back up again!

Kabam can we get a permanent ban of arena bots please? This is lame, honest people spend their time on grinding for champions whereas some simply use bots and scripts to run arena.

    No way to do this permanently since as soon as you make one wave of a ban, new bots are created.

    Cutoffs increasing are not automatically a sign that people are using bots.

    No the guy with the same name followed by increasing numbers placing in the top 20-100+ spots is.

    It's called spending money on refreshes

    Competing with bots is no bueno. If Kabam knows this is having an ongoing impact on the competitive fairness of this mode, they should just make the champ a milestone at an arbitrarily high point total. Like 25-30m for the featured 5*. Attainable with a well-developed roster or a less developed one if you spend some extra time+resources.

    People will still use bots, but at least it won't be taking someone out of a legit rewards spot because of it.

    This would be the ideal solution and something that would GREATLY benefit Arena as well as the overall happiness/enjoyment of the player-base. But it would remove the 'exclusivity' to an extent and the cynic in me is willing to bet that Kabam wouldn't make the arbitrarily high milestone something obtainable without spending units.

    They'd look at the current cut-off values and add an additional value.

    That's the cynic in me though.
    I'd love for what you suggested. A flat grind of 3-5m for a featured 4* or 25-30m for a featured 5*? That would be amazing.

    Won't happen though, so bots will continue to be a recurring issue.
